The MCSPI controller has a built-in FIFO buffer to unload the DMA or interrupt
handler and improve data throughput. This patch adds FIFO buffer support for SPI
transfers in DMA mode.
The FIFO could be enabled for SPI module by setting up the "ti,spi-fifo-enabled"
configuration parameter in DT.
If FIFO enabled, the largest possible FIFO buffer size will be calculated and
setup for each SPI transfer. Even if the FIFO is enabled in DT, it won't be used
for the SPI transfers when: calculated FIFO buffer size is less then 2 bytes or
the FIFO buffer size isn't multiple of the SPI word length.
Why is the default to disable the FIFO?
I have changed this and sent v3 patches of the MCSPI FIFO support
implementation. In this version driver set up the FIFO (if possible) for
all the SPI transfers in DMA mode.
